All aboard, here comes Alex!

This is an electric train caring cargo (his words)

Before we had three little boys I knew nothing about trains (or dinosaurs). Not true I knew they existed. But did you know that they are 100's of different kinds of trains? Diesel, Electric, Steam, Maglev, Monorail, .. well Alex does and can tell you all about them. Our little train engineer would love nothing more than to spend his days at the train yard, or depot, or quarry, where ever trains are he wants to be in the thick of it.  

Each night I will tell them a story before bed Alex's asks for me to tell him a story about how he rides a Steam train to the toy store where he buys trains. It is full of adventure and suspense but always ends with Alex having a cart full of toy model trains and accessories to built a whole land. 

And did you know there is a whole community of people who spend THOUSANDS of dollars building little towns of model trains and take it very seriously, and post videos about it online? Alex does and will beg and plead and negotiate to watch them all over an over again. 

But I guess it could be worse he could into girls already!!
